How To Sell Skins A Little Better

Zert··9 votes·1,179 views

My simple yet effective idea is to make a YouTube video showing all the effects on skins when you scan through the lists. I think this will give players a better understanding of what they will be purchasing and less likely to be refunding for a certain skin they didn't like. Yes I know people on YouTube already do this but it would be nice if it was right there in front of us in the game itself.

EDIT: Plus Riot's spaghetti probability wouldn't allow it.

Step 1: buff champion Step 2: nerf counters Step 3: release skin

Works for them thus far.

They buffed Lee Sin for what logical reason? He's already good as is.

For me it was: Step 1: release only skins without particle effects for him Step 2: don't nerf or buff him directly for years on end Step 3: release a skin with particle effects and a cool recall animation The skin spotlight i saw and limited availability swayed me from i want this skin to i need this skin

But then if there were a bad skin in the spotlight it wouldn't sell. I think they would rather just risk people being "upset" instead of people avoid the purchase all together.

Who says one is a bad skin to one player over another? Everyone has different tastes. And also even if there was an absolute terrible skin, then that should make RIOT focus on giving us great skins.
